Beats by Dre
Beats by Dre are the hottest present for music lovers who care about getting the best sound quality and style. These premium, High Definition headphones enhance the smartphone experience and are sure to be a huge hit this holiday season! Not convinced?

Samsung GALAXY S4
Designed to amplify life’s meaningful moments, the Samsung GALAXY S4 is a great companion for capturing and sharing holiday moments (and bloopers). Here are some of the things that make using the Samsung
GALAXY S4 from TELUS an effortless, beautiful experience:
Sporting the world’s first-ever Full HD Super AMOLED display, the GALAXY S4’s five-inch screen showcases images in stunning resolution. And with its Dual Camera mode (including a 13-megapixel rear camera), users can capture life’s moments in as many ways as you can think of – and enjoy them seamlessly through TELUS’ 4G LTE wireless network.
Break language barriers with S-Translator – customers who are traveling abroad this holiday season will appreciate this! They can say or text what they need translated and the GALAXY S4 will read or text the translation back.
Provides effortless innovation – features like Smart Pause, Air View, Air
Gesture and Optical Reader detect your motions, face and voice to enable screen control with no need for finger touch activation (and the screen can be used with gloves, too!)
Group play – Users can connect with friends and family around them to play and co-create content, without the need for a Wi-Fi connection or cell signal.
Toss it in your bag, worry-free – constructed with Corning’s Gorilla Glass 3, this phone is as tough as it is beautiful, and can withstand the daily bump and grind (or last minute trip to a tropical destination to ring in the New Year!)
Learn more about the Samsung GALAXY S4 from TELUS, available for $179 on a two-year term, or $700 outright.
TELUS SharePlus Plans
Getting the whole family together for the holidays is easier with TELUS’ SharePlus plans! Featuring unlimited nationwide talk and text, TELUS customers can talk to family and friends all over the country without worrying about overages or long distance charges. Where this plan really shines, though, is through data sharing. With TELUS SharePlus, customers can share data across multiple devices – one data plan for the whole family!
Best of all, additional smartphones and tablets can be added without having to add additional data – as the name suggests, they just share it! So, the more devices customers add, the bigger the savings. More time with family and fewer bills to manage? Yes, please!
Samsung GALAXY S4 mini
Extending the GALAXY S4 experience to a broader audience, the S4 mini is a mid-range device that is a lower-
cost, and as the name suggests, smaller version of its big brother. This device offers many of the features that made the GS4 famous, at a budget-friendly price point.
- Compact design – The GALAXY S4 mini’s slim design makes it perfect to take with you anywhere, anytime.
- Premium experience – This device offers the same flagship experience as the GS4, including an 8MP camera, Group Play and Samsung Link.
- Powerful performance – The S4 mini packs a punch with a 1.7 GHz Dual Core Processor and the Android Jellybean 4.2.2 operating system.

I would keep it for myself!! :)
everyones got a phone but me, so its for me. I DON’T have one as I don’t go to the city unless I’m with someone else (I don’t have a car, so go with my daughter) When she moves out I’ll prob get a car and I’ll def need a phone as I know its not safe to drive on our highways without one. I certainly don’t need one for anything else (prob the main reason I’ve not gotten one ) We have a home phone due to the fact that you can’t get internet unless you have a land line (and prob won’t ever change out here) I know you can get internet with your cell but from what all my co-workers say, its not very good and its even worse then the old dial up (quite a few people I work with live in a tiny town of 7 houses lol)
If I won, I would enjoy it myself :)
I will gift the prize to my brother. he really needs a new phone!
my husband would love this
Either of these awesome prizes would be a hit in our family! Thanks for the chance. Merry Christmas!

I’d give the earphones to my middle son and keep the phone for myself. I have a Samsung now but could do with updating it, or so my son says ;-)
